Western blot is considered as the Gold standard test for HIV. If Western blot is negative then you do not need to worry and it cannot turn out to be positive and any other prevalent test. You can always be sure of Western blot but only if you have got it done from a standard lab. Get your test done from ictc centres approved by government if the test reports turn out to be negative then you are completely free of HIV
